One of the many things Raptors fans learnt about Kawhi Leonard last season is that he doesn’t exactly show a lot of emotion on the court, and on Wednesday night, Clippers nation got one of their first real tastes of ‘The Klaw’.
LA hosted the Boston Celtics in an overtime thriller at the Staples Center and with the game on the line, Kawhi came up clutch. Up 107-104, Leonard got a piece of a last second three-ball from Kemba Walker and instead of celebrating with his teammates, the reigning Finals MVP gave just a single clap and didn’t even smile. He didn’t even crack a smile for crying out loud!!!!
Fans obviously had a thing or two to say about the reaction on Twitter:
So it wasn’t all defence from the 28-year-old. He absolutely POSTERIZED Daniel Theis as the Clippers trailed in the 4th quarter.
Look, the dude just doesn’t show emotion on the court. It simply just ain’t his thang. But that doesn’t mean he lacks personality off of it…
(H/T FTW)
